The Active Directory import is currently running on another SafeGuard Management Center / SafeGuard Server instance or was running before but did not complete, keeping the Active Directory import for data integrity reasons in in a locked state.

What To Do

If there is currently another Active Directory import running, cancel the Active Directory import (if required) and re-run the API script.

If the last attempt to synchronize the Active Directory failed, the Active Directory import flag needs to be reset. To do so

open the SafeGuard Enterprise Management Center

navigate to "Tool" >"Options" > "Directory"

use the "Reset import flag" function

a popup message appears, verifying if the Active Directory import flag should be reset. Click "Yes"

Start another Active Directory synchronization using the API script after the Active Directory import flag was cleared.
